Summoners War to launch in China with Baidu and 360

With over 25 million downloads to-date, Com2uS' hit game is Summoners War and now it's coming to China.

The Korean publisher will be working with local Android app distribution partners Baidu and Qihoo 360 to get the game into the fast-growing market during February.

Between them, the two stores have a reach of around 500 million users.

New plans

The launch is the first part of Com2uS' plan for China; something that's being run from its recently-open Taiwan office.

It comes on the back of a strong US marketing campaign for the game that featured popular Vine personalities.
